Thanks for the link, Mike.
It was interesting to read the article and see the author gave up “city life” to start farming. My wife watches a YouTube show called “Gold Shaw Farm.” The guy filming did the same thing (I.e. moving from city life) and says on the show he gets criticized by viewers for butchering and eating his chickens, geese and ducks. Sometimes I think a large part of our population has lived a life that is far too sheltered.
Our state was experiencing huge delays at processors. Turns out the federal USDA inspection process was a big part of the problem, so state government established a state-run inspection department approved by USDA to address the issue. It has just started, but I am very hopeful it will help a lot.

Was thinking by the title, article would possibly be more about selecting, skinning and butchering tips and tricks.

I am a guerilla butcher. It ain't pretty. I watch the Bearded Butcher videos on YouTube and am envious of their skills.
May need a sharper fillet or boning knife?

For those who are interested there is a Youtube Channel by a couple professional butchers called The Bearded Butcher. These guys are truly professional. They are hunters and have butchered all manner of domestic and game animals with step by step instructions about how to do it. If you are going to butcher your own they are worth watching.
